12. The Kansas City Strangler: The Victims of Lorenzo Gilyard Jr.
Manage episode 350249505 series 3409840
Between 1977 and 1990, Kansas City police had an unprecedented number of murdered women and girls on their hands whose cases remained unsolved. In that 13-year span, there were 72 open cases of femicide.
In 2001, the Kansas City Police Department received a million-dollar federal grant to help close local cold cases which led to extensive DNA testing, which is how 12 of these victims could finally be connected to one man: Lorenzo Gilyard Jr, now known as "The Kansas City Strangler."
